The present study aimed to identify a long cantly different overall survival and recurrence-free survival non-coding (lnc) RNAs-based signature for prognosis assess- times. The predictive capability of this signature was verified ment in gastric cancer (GC) patients. By integrating gene in an independent set.

The present study identified an 11‑lncRNA Atlas (TCGA) repositories, the common RNAs in Genomic signature that could predict the survival rate for GC. Spatial Event (GSE) 65801, GSE29998, E-MTAB-1338, and TCGA set were screened and used to construct a weighted Introduction correlation network analysis (WGCNA) network for mining GC-related modules. Consensus differentially expressed Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth leading cause of malignancy RNAs (DERs) between GC and normal samples in the four worldwide, with a 5-year survival rate of <10% (1,2). In China, datasets were screened using the MetaDE method. From the it is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and overlapped lncRNAs shared by preserved WGCNA modules the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in women (3). and the consensus DERs, an lncRNAs signature was obtained The poor prognosis is primarily attributable to patients being using L1-penalized (lasso) Cox-proportional hazard (PH) frequently identified at an advanced stage and therefore diffi- model.

Previous studies have focussed on the pathogenesis of liver cirrhosis developing into HCC, but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. The aims of the present study were to identify key genes related to the transformation of cirrhosis into HCC, and explore the associated molecular mechanisms. Methods: GSE89377, GSE17548, GSE63898 and GSE54236 mRNA microarray datasets from Gene Expression Omni- bus (GEO) were analysed to obtain diferentially expressed genes (DEGs) between HCC and liver cirrhosis tissues, and network analysis of protein–protein interactions (PPIs) was carried out. String and Cytoscape were used to analyse modules and identify hub genes, Kaplan–Meier Plotter and Oncomine databases were used to explore relationships between hub genes and disease occurrence, development and prognosis of HCC, and the molecular mechanism of the main hub gene was probed using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway analysis.

  • The Regulatory Roles of Phosphatases in Cancer
    Oncogene (2014) 33, 939–953 & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9232/14 www.nature.com/onc REVIEW The regulatory roles of phosphatases in cancer J Stebbing1, LC Lit1, H Zhang, RS Darrington, O Melaiu, B Rudraraju and G Giamas The relevance of potentially reversible post-translational modifications required for controlling cellular processes in cancer is one of the most thriving arenas of cellular and molecular biology. Any alteration in the balanced equilibrium between kinases and phosphatases may result in development and progression of various diseases, including different types of cancer, though phosphatases are relatively under-studied. Loss of phosphatases such as PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10), a known tumour suppressor, across tumour types lends credence to the development of phosphatidylinositol 3--kinase inhibitors alongside the use of phosphatase expression as a biomarker, though phase 3 trial data are lacking. In this review, we give an updated report on phosphatase dysregulation linked to organ-specific malignancies.

  • Small-Molecule Binding Sites to Explore New Targets in the Cancer Proteome
    Electronic Supplementary Material (ESI) for Molecular BioSystems. This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2016 Small-molecule binding sites to explore new targets in the cancer proteome David Xu, Shadia I. Jalal, George W. Sledge Jr., and Samy O. Meroueh* Supplementary Text Druggable Binding Sites across all 10 Diseases. Using the previously established cutoffs, we identified genes that were overexpressed across multiple cancer types and featured druggable binding sites. We ranked these genes based on the total number of tumors that overexpressed the gene (Fig. S1). Using a simple PubMed query, we then counted the number of articles in which either the gene symbol or gene name was co-mentioned with the term ‘cancer’. Most of the most frequently occurring differentially-expressed genes correspond to proteins of well- established cancer targets. Among them are matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), including MMP1, MMP9, and MMP12, which are implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis (1). There are several protein kinases, including TTK, AURKA, AURKB, and PLK1, that are involved in cell signaling and well-established oncology targets (2). Some genes among this list that have not been extensively studied nor targeted in cancer. These include the serine/threonine kinase PKMYT1 (MYT1) is a regulator of G2/M transition in the cell cycle, but lacks focused small molecule inhibitors that specifically target the kinase. Recent efforts in developing small molecule inhibitors involve repurposing of available kinase inhibitors to specifically target the kinase (3). A subunit of the GINS complex GINS2 (PSF2) is involved in cell proliferation and survival in cancer cell lines (4,5).

    Human Kinase Open Reading Frame Collecon Description: The Center for Cancer Systems Biology (Dana Farber Cancer Institute)- Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT Human Kinase ORF collection from Addgene consists of 559 distinct human kinases and kinase-related protein ORFs in pDONR-223 Gateway® Entry vectors. All clones are clonal isolates and have been end-read sequenced to confirm identity. Kinase ORFs were assembled from a number of sources; 56% were isolated as single cloned isolates from the ORFeome 5.1 collection (horfdb.dfci.harvard.edu); 31% were cloned from normal human tissue RNA (Ambion) by reverse transcription and subsequent PCR amplification adding Gateway® sequences; 11% were cloned into Entry vectors from templates provided by the Harvard Institute of Proteomics (HIP); 2% additional kinases were cloned into Entry vectors from templates obtained from collaborating laboratories. All ORFs are open (stop codons removed) except for 5 (MST1R, PTK7, JAK3, AXL, TIE1) which are closed (have stop codons). Detailed information can be found at: www.addgene.org/human_kinases Handling and Storage: Store glycerol stocks at -80oC and minimize freeze-thaw cycles. To access a plasmid, keep the plate on dry ice to prevent thawing.

  • Genome-Wide Transcriptome Profiling of Homologous Recombination DNA
    ARTICLE Received 1 Jan 2014 | Accepted 31 Jan 2014 | Published 20 Feb 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms4361 Genome-wide transcriptome profiling of homologous recombination DNA repair Guang Peng1,2,*, Curtis Chun-Jen Lin3,*, Wei Mo3,*, Hui Dai3, Yun-Yong Park3, Soo Mi Kim4, Yang Peng3, Qianxing Mo5, Stefan Siwko3, Ruozhen Hu3, Ju-Seog Lee3, Bryan Hennessy6, Samir Hanash1, Gordon B. Mills3 & Shiaw-Yih Lin3 Homologous recombination (HR) repair deficiency predisposes to cancer development, but also sensitizes cancer cells to DNA damage-inducing therapeutics. Here we identify an HR defect (HRD) gene signature that can be used to functionally assess HR repair status without interrogating individual genetic alterations in cells. By using this HRD gene signature as a functional network analysis tool, we discover that simultaneous loss of two major tumour suppressors BRCA1 and PTEN extensively rewire the HR repair-deficient phenotype, which is found in cells with defects in either BRCA1 or PTEN alone. Moreover, the HRD gene signature serves as an effective drug discovery platform to identify agents targeting HR repair as potential chemo/radio sensitizers. More importantly, this HRD gene signature is able to predict clinical outcomes across multiple cancer lineages. Our findings, therefore, provide a molecular profile of HR repair to assess its status at a functional network level, which can provide both biological insights and have clinical implications in cancer. 1 Department of Clinical Cancer Prevention, Unit 1013, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas 77030, USA. 2 Department of Oncology, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, The University of Huazhong Science & Technology, Wuhan, Hubei Province 430022, China.
